Chris Brown apologizes for the Rihanna incident
R&B singer Chris Brown issued a videotaped apology to his fans about the incident that occurred in February when he beat up his girlfriend singer Rihanna.
The video was posted on Brown’s Web site.
Brown says he’s learned from his mistakes, and says he’s apologized to Rihanna several times. He said he wanted to issue a public statement sooner, but his attorney’s wouldn’t let him.
I’ve written numerous posts about the Chris Brown and Rihanna altercation. Now that Brown has apologized, this will probably be my last post, regarding their altercation
Before I end it, there is something I want to discuss.
I was disturbed by the number of emails and comments I’ve received from readers who tell me “Rihanna deserved to be beaten up. It was Rihanna’s fault. Rihanna brought it on herself.”
Before you make those malicious statements, think about this. What if your mother was bloodied and beaten up by her boyfriend? Would you say your mother deserved it?… What if your sister was bloodied and beaten up by her boyfriend? Would you say your sister deserved it?
In the video, Brown appears to be remorseful. I believe he’s truly sorry and will not make the same mistake again. Yes, it’s time to move on. But placing the blame on Rihanna is not productive. It’s not the victim’s fault.
Brown’s apology is posted in the video clip below.
